During the conference, CNN Digital General Manager KC Estenson showed
off high-quality video and multiplatform capabilities that will enable
viewers to watch customized video streams wherever they are and on
whichever devices they choose.

To access the stream, users will need a television subscription to Comcast, Xfinity, Dish, Cox, or Verizon FIOS--the new initiative arrives
at the same time Time Warner Cable
launched its own iPad app, allowing users to watch 32 live channels on
the tablet. CNN has promised virtually indistinguishable quality between
mobile and TV-streamed content (picture below), and from what Fast Company was shown during a live SXSW demo, the quality will likely satisfy most consumers.

As a commodity business with a number of online sources, news is one
vertical where serious value can be created through cool technological
tricks like those that Estenson shows off in the demo.To monetize news these additions are creating that justification for a large chunk of people.

Will multiplatform (TV Everywhere) concepts be the new viable way of monetizing news?
